Default shaft play

i was under my car this morning just checking things out, i grabed the drive shaft with one hand and was able to twist the drive shaft a little less than half an inch back and fourth. is this to much play? i had my car jacked up on the rear driver side with the parking brake on and it was in neutral. i am somewhat new and was just wondering if this is normal. i had my pinion seal replaced at the dealer and it does not appear to be leaking so far(1500m) since it was changed. between 60 - 70, with the windows up and radio off i hear a very slight sound ,kinda like a jet engine sound, but other than that everything seems to be okay. car drives smooth and quite. any thoughts.
sorry for the long post.

thanks
